it's mad annoying. You need a hammer and a grinder. If you grind just a TINY bit of the hub's backing plate ...you know what im talking about. Not the brake sheild, but the stupid collar behind the hub, you can install them. This is the way i did it on my CTR 5 lug that i had because im a baller and i can do that ****.

Edit: but does anyone actually know how to take off the hub? I have friends working at a honda dealership as techs..maybe i'll ask them if nobody knows.

I think the hub requires a puller of some sort. Someone did a write up on this not too long ago. Attached the puller at two or three points and voila! Try and search for "wheel studs" and see if you can find the DIY.
